Chairman of Parliament’s Select Committee on Transport and Member of Parliament for Wassa East, Adjei Mensah, has reaffirmed the government’s commitment to completing all road projects initiated by the previous administration.

According to him, the pledge forms part of President John Dramani Mahama’s broader “Resetting Ghana” agenda aimed at sustaining national development and improving infrastructure delivery.

“President Mahama has stated clearly that every project commenced by the previous government will be continued.

That is his pledge to the people of Ghana,” Hon. Mensah said.

He made the remarks during an inspection tour by the Parliamentary Select Committee on Roads and Transport of ongoing and stalled road projects within the Sekondi-Takoradi metropolis.

The Committee inspected several major projects, including the Apremdo Bridge, PTC Interchange, Apowa Road, Axim Road, Beach Road Roundabout, and the Paa Grant Roundabout.

Hon. Mensah assured residents that the Western Region would witness significant improvements in road infrastructure under the current National Democratic Congress (NDC) administration.

“We are not abandoning projects. We are resetting and completing them for the people,” he stated.

Meanwhile, Vice Chairman of the Committee and Member of Parliament for Sawla-Tuna-Kalba, Andrew Dari Chiwitey, raised concerns over the stalled PTC Interchange project.

He questioned the status of funds reportedly paid toward the project by the previous administration, noting that despite claims that US$31 million had been disbursed, construction progress remains minimal.

“The previous government said they made a payment of $31 million for the PTC Interchange, yet the project remains at a very low stage of completion,” he said, calling on stakeholders and the media to demand accountability.

Hon. Chiwitey further advocated for a forensic audit into the use of funds allocated for the interchange project to ensure value for money and restore public confidence.

The inspection exercise forms part of Parliament’s oversight responsibility to evaluate the condition of road infrastructure across the country, identify stalled projects, and make recommendations for their completion under the government’s development agenda.
